A Denver judge recently ruled investor Bill Hoff of We Buy
Ugly Houses acted fraudulently to obtain the home of Isaac Tyler.

Tyler died last year, leaving his house behind to his three
sons, who he never formally adopted. The
eldest son was in prison, which left sons Tyrone and Spencer to deal with the
home. Against Tyrone’s wishes, Spencer
wished to sell the home. After Spencer
quit making mortgage payments and received a foreclosure notice, Bill Hoff and
Sverre Jensen offered Spencer $5,000 cash with the promise of $12,000 more once
they sold the house. Hoff soon became
the new owner of the home, valued at $161,000, after forging Tyler’s misspelled
name on a document.
